What is Youth Athlete of the Year?

What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

The competition. The battle. He knows it’s just a game, but reminds him of life lessons. No matter of the outcome during the game, the kids are still friends after the game.


Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

His brother and his dad. He says, it’s easy to look up to someone who has been through the same thing you are going through. Meaning, sportsmanship. Learning life lessons through baseball, football and basketball. The teachings. The time my brother takes to help me, means more to me than the game of baseball.


What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

Can’t name one moment. Just watching him on the field and on the court, on how he treats everyone makes me proud. Don’t get me wrong. This kid wants the ball all the time, but he knows when to hand to his teammate as well. That’s pretty impressive for a twelve year old. His heart is so genuine on and off the field.
